Dear friends,

 

Thank you so much for helping us accomplish so much this year thus far!  In the past three months we have been able to:

  • Start a Big Read campaign that includes 740 children from rural and marginalized communities
  • Implement one free workshop for teachers on best practices for spreading the love of reading
  • Continue bi-weekly visits to two different rural communities to tutor children
  • Sponsoring a writing competition for writers (ages 12-15) in San Miguel de Allende
  • Sponsoring a Poetry Slam event in Dolores Hidalgo

 There is so much more we want to accomplish this school year.

Between April 8-12, we will participating in the Little by Little fundraiser for matching grants.  This means you can leverage your impact by donating TODAY!  Any donation up to $50 USD will be matched 50%.  We would not be able to do what we do without your help so please spread the word!  The less time we spend on fundraising, the more time we can spend with children and organizing literary events.

Best wishes to all of you. Thank you for your support and helping us plant the seeds of change.
